Letter: Bryan takes candidacy seriously

Editor: I want to set the record straight in what appears to be misinformation being spread about Ken Bryan’s run for Mayor of St. Augustine.

Ken decided to run for this seat at the beginning of the year, after several people in the community encouraged him to, because they were tired of how the city was being run.

As Ken makes his way around the city speaking to people about their concerns, it is quite disappointing to hear some say that they heard he is only in this race to split the vote, or that he promised to drop out at the last minute to help another candidate. These rumors are completely false.

Most of Ken’s campaign has been funded with our own money, since people are reluctant or fearful to have their names appear publicly as contributors.

Though disappointed with that, we get it, and are OK with it — and only ask for your vote.

I can also tell you that if Ken were not serious about running for mayor, he would not be throwing our hard-earned money out the window and spending his days knocking on doors.

Ken is running to make a positive impact and difference in the city.

With his many years of experience and success, he is the right choice to get the City of St. Augustine back on its feet.

On Aug. 26, please vote for Ken Bryan as your next mayor of the City of St. Augustine.
